My kids are on fall break for the next 3 days so I am trying to keep them busy. This morning we went to the children’s discovery center down near kakaako. The kids loved it! They can touch and play with everything. My hardest job was following them around because they didn’t stay in one place long! This gets and A+ for keeping them busy and wearing them out. It’s $8 a person so on the expense scale it’s just ok. I think you can get a membership too. They have exibits that come in and out and today it was Curious George. The kids liked and it’s inexpensive enough to do a few times a year.

Permanant Exhibits include:

Tot Spot- where children 0-5 can play inside a smalled fenced area with soft toys etc.

Fantastic You- where the exhibits focuse on the parts of the body including the heart, lungs, stomach, mouth and brain

Your Town- where kids can play dress up and interact with many exhibits that are common in every day life including a mock TV studio, fire station, auto shop, bank and more.

Your Rainbow World- which showcases various cultures that are common in Hawaii such as the Philipines, Japan and China.

The material in this blog is from my own experience on the trail and is intended as a guide to help you see the wonderful beauty that Hawaii has to offer. But always remember that trail conditions can and do vary greatly and can change very quickly. Many of these trails are muddy even on the dryest day and that mud coating a rock or wood surface is very slick. Be prepared for contingencies such as rain, wind or loss of daylight. Also make sure you bring plenty of water since staying hydrated is important. Remember you are the best judge of your own ability and turning back when things get tricky is always an option. See the safety section for more tips on trail safety and preparedness. Don't be afraid to get dirty on the way and have fun!
